We are trying to launch a program to help refugee orphans in the Atlanta area. We need volunteers who can help in any capacity - tutoring, mentorship, companionship, financial support etc. Please signup here: http://bit.ly/2lujKdG

Please feel free to contact us with any suggestions or comments at musheer@alfarooqmasjid.org

We will be having a Burial Will Workshop on Sunday, Jan 29 at 11:15 am at the second floor library. We will explain the process that takes place after a person's death and will go over the simple Burial Will that will be completed during the workshop. A notary will be present on site who will help complete the document. 

Please attend to complete the will for free. This is especially important if you are the only Muslim in your family or you do not have any other family in town. However, all Muslims are encouraged to have this document completed to ensure we are able to perform Islamic rites such as ghusl, janazah and burial in an Islamic cemetery if someone was to pass away. 

Note: The burial will only describes what must take place after a person's death in terms of the preparation of the body and burial. It does not contain any inheritance information.

Please try to attend the janazah of Br. Saeed Muhammad Abu Bakr (Stanley M. Browne) on Thursday (1/19) after dhuhr salah at Al-Farooq Masjid at 2pm. He has no Muslim family members and has been attending classes at our masjid for several years. May Allah (swt) forgive him and grant him Jannatul Firdous. إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعون

To celebrate Al-Farooq Masjid's 5th year in feed the homeless program which takes place every other week - we are distributing winter care packages to the homeless on January 22. These packages includes a hat, socks, winter gloves and other necessities for homeless. You can volunteer to help in the distribution by meeting at Al-Farooq Masjid's elevator lobby at 10am to pack around 220-300 lunch boxes for homeless and then head to the parks in downtown Atlanta to distribute the food and winter care packages.

If you cannot participate, you can still donate to cover the costs of the winter care packages at this link: https://us.mohid.co/ga/atlanta/afm/masjid/online/donation and select the category as 'Feed the Homeless'.
